Scrubs

Dejounte Murray (at OKC – $6,000 on DK; $6,000 on FD): The Spurs role players always step up against OKC and Murray has been a proven OKC killer in the past. You can also look at Patty Mills as a cheaper option because he’s going to knockdown multiple threes and chip in with assists.

Malik Beasley (at DEN – $5,800 on DK; $5,200 on FD): It’s a revenge game for Beasley and he’s already been playing very well for the Timberwolves. They need any scoring they can get with Towns out of the lineup and Beasley has been one guy to provide that for them. I’m always a fan of the revenge game and I know he has a big one in him.

Bruce Brown (at POR – $5,600 on DK; $4,700 on FD): Rose might be the PG drawing the start but Brown is the guy getting most of the minutes. As long as he’s going to get the minutes then he’s a safe play with a high ceiling, especially against this matchup. There’s some good value across Detroit given the matchup and their relative prices.

Juancho Hernangomez (at DEN – $5,100 on DK; $4,700 on FD): If you want to save money from Beasley, then go after Juancho. He’s also at a very good price and has the extra opportunities with Towns out of the lineup. The revenge factor is there for him as well, but I believe in that for Beasley a bit more. You can also look at Naz Reid if he draws the start once again.

Coby White (vs WAS – $5,200 on DK; $4,500 on FD): Grab White or Satoransky even though it’s a back to back for the Bulls. The Wizards defense isn’t good and both White and Satoransky are at a good price given the opposition, even if the circumstances could be better.
